The Cup Cozy Pillow was inspired when Monica Almaguer, was working on her laptop on the living room couch. While working, she always likes to have a drink close by. Even with a coffee table, it still required moving her laptop, taking a sip, then putting the laptop back on her lap. Only to have to repeat the process all over again a few minutes later. Sometimes Monica's cup would end up by her feet...a dangerous situation with four kids and two dogs. Other times, she would take her chances and just allow her cup to free float in the middle of the seat cushion, almost begging to be spilled. Trying to come up with a solution of wanting her drink right next to her, without fear of spilling, was the "Ah Ha" moment.

Marguerite Spagnuolo and Poker

Grandmas2Share, a patented, USA trademarked doll company, was inspired by the birth of Marguerite’s two children. Having lost both of my grandmothers before they got to meet my children, she got the inspiration to “re-create” them in the form of a doll. When Marguerite told her children about my project and sketched out the drawings for the prototype of dolls, they immediately fell in love with them! Her daughter said, “I WISH THEY WERE REALLY HERE!” Marguerite drew her “grandma” for her book cover and Grandmas2Share was born!
